| From the author whose literary debut， The River Sorrow， was hailed by The New York Times as "a haunting， highly original thriller [with] one powerful surprise after another" comes a riveting new novel that could have come from today s headlines--at once a heart-pounding， chillingly realistic thriller and a dark， complex plunge into the human psyche.Rarely has a first novel received the kind of extraordinary critical acclaim garnered by The River Sorrow， Craig Holden s spellbinding tale of an innocent man accused of murder， caught in a nightmare of terror and survival.With The Last Sanctuary， Holden dazzles us once again with a mesmerizing thriller that introduces another good， ordinary man turned fugitive--this time a Gulf War veteran living on the edge of society， falsely accused of murder and plunged into America s dark underworld of armed militias and terrorist cults， running from the cops， federal agents--and from his own tortured soul.The cat and mouse chase across North America s last wilderness--the soaring mountains and glacier-strewn shores of Alaska--is brilliantly cinematic. The complex relationship between the fugitive， Joe Curtis， and his nemesis， a female Native American ATF agent， is superbly rendered and utterly unpredictable. And the novel， at once nerve-shattering and beautifully written， is as topical as Waco and Oklahoma City--and as universal as our own worst nightmares. |
